Configure video playback behavior, controls, and audio. Apple TV organizes the
screen into Player, Controls, Autoplay, Audio, and Advanced
tabs. iPhone and iPad present their supported controls as sections and add
Background & Picture in Picture.
Apple TV lets you choose the playback engine. iPhone and iPad use Trident for
all playback, so they do not show an engine picker.
| Engine | Description |
|---|---|
| Trident | Neptune's custom player, designed for direct play (default) |
| AVPlayer | Apple's native player. The server transcodes incompatible formats |
See Trident Player for what Trident supports.
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Direct Play | Plays the file as-is from your server. No re-encoding, no quality loss (default) |
| Transcode | Your server re-encodes on-the-fly to fit a target bitrate |
Choosing Transcode reveals:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Target Bitrate | 1 to 120 Mbps. The server keeps the stream within this cap |
| Always Transcode | Transcode even files that fit under the cap |
You can also change quality per-session from the Playback Menu's Video tab.
| Setting | Description |

| Playback Menu | Choose which tabs appear in the in-player menu, and their order |
| Back / Menu Button | Always Exit, or Dismiss First |
Timeline options: Buffer Indicator, Chapter Markers, and Seek Thumbnails (all on by default).

| Skip Intro / Credits | Show a Skip button when your server provides segment data (default on) |
| Auto Skip | Skip intros and credits without pressing anything (default off) |
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| EAC3-Atmos Passthrough | Pass Dolby Atmos straight to your receiver instead of decoding. Requires an Atmos-capable receiver (default off) |
| Audio Preset | Default, Bass, or Voice |
| Night Mode | Off, On, or Auto with a start and end time (10:00 PM to 7:00 AM by default) |
| A/V Sync Offset | Up to half a second in either direction |
Track selection behavior (which language and track type get picked) lives in Conductor.
These two settings are independent and on by default:
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Picture in Picture | Automatically continues video in a floating system window when you go Home or switch apps |
| Background Playback | Continues audio when Neptune is behind another app or the screen is locked |
Locking the screen does not start Picture in Picture; Background Playback
controls that path. With both settings off, playback pauses when Neptune
leaves the foreground.
Changes apply to the next playback session. See
Picture in Picture & Background Playback for the complete
four-state behavior, Lock Screen and Control Center actions, subtitle and
transcode limits, and troubleshooting.

| De-Interlacing | Auto, On, or Off. Removes combing artifacts from interlaced content like DVDs and broadcasts (default Auto) |
